Mentor-hosted resources
in progress

Allow a place to link to or upload resources that we may frequently reference for mentees. I'd love to be able to group them or pin some... ex. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1m-Cso3848CgEz0eng5spL0lDppnwOgt726jJ01pVwO8/edit#gid=288553197
which is a resource I often use for people discerning the IC vs Manager track.
Another example I might have to share is a link to helpful books or lectures, too.
Bonus: If sending a note or message (TBH, it's a bit unclear the intended distinction between the two), it would be great to be able to point to those listed resources.

+1 to this and looking forward to it if it's in progress. I end up housing and sharing notes and resources via Notion with most participants to fill this need right now.

Share Resources & Links with Mentees More easily

So I have had half a dozen sessions so far. In each session I realize I am sending references/links to my mentees. This can be a link to a Book, a website that helps them with some PM Framework, or I may refer to a Blog or a Substack or a Podcast they may want to look at, to help guide them. I'd love to be able to create a simple list of these within my ADP Mentor profile and after a session just check mark those that are relevant and send those easily to a new mentee. I am doing this manually over and over... I would imagine that I could have 25-30 of these, and I pick the 2-3 that are relevant for a new mentee at a given time. Right now I am using a Google Spreadsheet and Google Doc to track these, so I'm doing it manually and copy/pasting a bunch into my chat thread with Mentees. The format of the Chat thread also makes it look really long... so after a session they may get 6-7 messages from me that scroll 4 screens, I don't want it to be overwhelming, but I want to help them easily with access to a few items, and to add a 1 sentence follow up on each topic, right so they recall why I am sharing a resource with them - Name of a Book, Link to a website/resource to guide them, etc.

@Ali I absolutely love your idea! The same thing happens to me over and over again! I love following up with useful materials that could help my mentees. When I share those in the chat, it looks like I'm bombarding them with resources (and I just shared 2-3 links o.0); Having such a list in my profile will be life-changing!!!!
